The Mothers’ Union is a Christian organisation within the Church of England which works to support and encourage marriage and stable family life. There are c4 million members in 83 countries.
The Mothers’ Union in Southam is a parish-based group who usually meet on the second Thursday of each month to pray, volunteer, fundraise and campaign on a variety of family-based issues. The group’s aim is to keep expanding membership and hold more evening meetings to involve those who are not able to attend in an afternoon to join in. More information of what is happening across the Coventry Diocese can be found on the Mothers’ Union Coventry Diocese website.
It is always particularly pleasing to welcome new members as it gives an indication that Mothers’ Union is still a lively growing organisation that has much to offer. You do not have to be a mother to join and gentlemen are welcomed. Equally, if you wish to just support a project we will be pleased to hear from you.
